In reply to the discussion: Sbarro Inc. pizza chain closing 155 locations, mostly in mall food courts [View all]brush
(59,551 posts)24. I've had it and it's not great pizza . . .
you'd think that Sbarro, being a New York-based company, would know how to make tasty pizza.
Any corner pizza shop in any of the NYC boroughs puts out better pizza (I mean the thin crust, fresh from the oven, foldable to get a good mouthful, greasy, dripping with hot cheese and sold-by the slice variety) than Sbarro and any of the big national chains.
They don't even get close.
Sbarro somehow missed all of that. But Melville where they're based is on Long Island and miles from the city line. Maybe that explains it.

Too bad. The one my family and I sometimes go to in Maine is fine. And it always seems pretty busy.

The one near me in Maine is fine. Actually quite good. May depend on location.

The one near me in Maine is fine. Maybe some differences between locations. ???

They just closed one in the busiest mall in Century City CA. What's their excuse for that one? nt

They are a franchised business too, so some small business people will be taking a bite. n/t
